I enjoy having computers that are as reliably solid as my refrigerator. Apple is as reliable as any other computer. But most virus are written for the 80% of the home PC market. Which is MS. Apple computer has lots of problems in dealing with the present world. Can not open a lot of the files you receive via email. So you have to either buy a lot of Apps. I run Open Office on the iMac so I can look at and print .xls files. I do have Pages, but when you are kicking out $7-40 for lots of apps on an expensive machine anyway, it starts to hurt. No support for Flash, etc. I have no problems opening files emailed to me. I have the Microsoft Office Suite, which includes EXCEL...for .XLS files. I don't miss FLASH. And how much extra did you pay on top of the high price for Apple to get it to open the files? And Flash is ubiquitous to the web display. The same amount extra, probably, any Windows user would have paid to obtain the Microsoft Office suite. I haven't run across FLASH as an integral and important part of a web site in a long time. -- Religion: together we can find the cure. |
